FAQs

What is the material composition of the Astrid Crochet Shirt?

The shirt is made from 60% Cotton and 40% Acrylic, offering a blend of comfort and durability.

How should I wash this shirt?

It is machine washable. Follow the care label instructions, typically a moderate temperature wash to protect the fabric and crochet detailing.

Can I tumble dry the shirt?

Tumble drying on a low heat setting is generally acceptable, but laying the shirt flat to dry is recommended to maintain its shape and prevent shrinkage.

Is this shirt suitable for very hot weather?

While it contains cotton, the acrylic blend may make it less breathable than a 100% cotton garment. It's best suited for mild to cooler weather or as a layering piece.

What size does this guide refer to?

This guide specifically covers the FatFace Astrid Crochet Shirt in Blue, Size 16 UK.

How do I care for the crochet detail?

Be gentle during washing and drying. Avoid snagging the crochet on sharp objects. If ironing is needed, use a low heat setting on the reverse side.

Troubleshooting

Crochet loops snagging

Be mindful of rough surfaces and jewellery that could catch on the crochet. If a snag occurs, gently try to work the yarn back into place with a needle or your fingers. Avoid pulling forcefully.

Shrinkage after washing

Ensure you are washing at the recommended temperature (usually a cool or warm cycle, not hot) and avoid high heat in the dryer. Laying flat to dry is the safest method.

Colour fading

Wash inside out in cold water with similar colours. Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach or harsh cleaning agents.
